palin2222 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I am currently in the process of transcribing the codex into quartermaster when i came across an interesting piece of information. Not a single entry in our entire codex lists Power armor as a piece of wargear that our units are actually equipped with. Units with TDA list the terminator armor. Does this mean that our units technically do not have an armor save till it gets FAQ'd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoebus Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 They get a save; it's in their stat-line. You just have the burden of having to explain how they have it without any armor. Don't feel bad, though. Codex: Space Marines also fails to list power armour as part of the wargear of any Space Marine that would be outfitted with by default.

palin2222 Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 The save is in the stat line that is true, Still I cant help but feel that is a little lazy... how much money did GW save by not printing the word Power Armor 60 times? Im going to have to look through the codex again to see if there is something that says "Unless other wise noted, every non-vehicle unit in this codex has power armor by default" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solrac Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 This happens on the Techmarine, Ezekiel and Azrael entries as well. Stat line shows a 2+ save but no Artificer Armour listed. I think it's because Terminator Armour has heaps of rules built into it whilst the other's just tell you what save they have which is shown in the stat line anyway. Bit lazy if you ask me but it is how it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Lucifer Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I'm going to close this one before it leads to back and forth and dead horse beating. If there is a 3+ or 2+ or 4+ in the model stats there is a save and woe betide the opponent that says I can't take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
